I caught Aurora at the Birmingham Sidewalk film festival. After reading the comments, I couldn't help but say a few things about the film myself. First, Aurora is not for everyone, but as far as independents go, it is a brave and remarkable endeavor. Shot on credit cards in the Southwest with a small cast and crew, one is completely taken away to this bleak and beautifully photographed world. The special effects are okay, the performances, fair to terrific and the story, captivating an moving. One critic noted that the narrative was lifted from the Robert Falcon Scott story of the Antarctic. It is clearly inspired by that tale and the book "South With Scott" by Admiral Sir Edward R.G.R. Evans. The filmmaker is paying homage to Scott and his men! Aurora is a film to see
